Hey everyone, I stumbled across this game and decided that I'd give it a try. I ran nexuiz.exe and it opened fine. I then attempted to begin playing the campaign sorta thing. It took me to the game and I pressed jump to begin. It looked like a cool game, and i went and got a gun and looked around. When I came to a bot I began firing, however in a couple seconds it blackscreened and told me that nexuiz.exe has stopped working. I tried it a couple different ways, tried all three .exe files, made sure it was unblocked in Windows Firewall, and all that stuff. I have come to the conclusion that it stops working almost immediately after I encounter a bot, whether I fire at it or not. Nexuiz looks like a great game, and I'd like to give it a shot. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Here's my specs.
Windows Vista Basic
Presario C500 (Compaq/HP)
Intel Celeron M CPU 520 @ 1.60 GHz
1526MB of RAM
And I think this is the video card... Mobile Intel 945GM Express Chipset Family? I'm not sure...
I think that's it. Any help is greatly appreciated. Great job, guys!
The game stops working when a bot is encountered.

Try turning off all graphics effects (click on the "Low" button), and disable the following features in "Video":
OpenGL 2.0 Shaders
VBO
OpenGL 2.0 Shaders

1. Open Notepad
2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
3. Save
4. Open the file in Notepad again
You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.

Awesome, it works fine now until I get fragged. 
The screen gets the red-shade-death-effect-thingy then it stops working.... I was going to play around with the settings to see which one was causing the problem, but I'd like to get this new problem figured out first. Thanks in advance!

Try adding the command line option -safe. This very obviously is a problem with your graphics drivers - have you tried updating them?

There are multiple versions of the c500 notebook and there is 32bit and 64bit vista to consider.

Pick one and see if you can find an updated graphics driver for yours.

All C500's with a Celeron are going to have 32bit Vista.
You'll definitely want to update your video card drivers, directly from Intel if possible ( here )
Intel IGPs don't currently support OpenGL 2.0, so turning of GLSL can only help. Also, turn off particles, they kill Intel IGPs pretty good.
